15 pages., via online journal., Author's review of emerging organizational stigma literature centers on what he describes as core-stigmatized organizations. They reflect "an evaluation held and often expressed by some social audience(s) that an organization or set of organizations is discounted, discredited, and/or tainted in some way owing to some core attribute or attributes." Tobacco companies are among examples mentioned.

68 pages., Introductory information and executive summary printed from the organization website. Full text available., The report described ExxonMobile as having "underwritten the most sophisticated and most successful disinformation campaign since the tobacco industry misled the public about the scientific evidence linking smoking to lung cancer and heart disease." Documentation described the company as having drawn upon four of the same tactics: manufactured uncertainty, information laundering, promoted scientific spokespeople, and attempt to shift the focus away from meaningful action.

It releases a bouquet of airborne odors and perfumes. If wild tobacco is growing nearby, it will "eavesdrop" on these chemical signals and fortify its defenses against such plant-eaters as caterpillars.

Agricultural Economics (Amsterdam, Netherlands), This paper tests for the influence of advertising on the inter-product distribution of consumer demand for non-durable goods and services in the UK, 1963–1996. The long-run demand for seven categories of non-durable products is modelled through an advertising-augmented version of the almost ideal demand system (AIDS), which is incorporated into an error-correction model to allow for short-run dynamic adjustments to long-run equilibrium positions. Model estimates confirm that the restrictions of price homogeneity and symmetry appear to be consistent with the data, yield measures of the various types of demand elasticity that are in general plausible, confirm the strong influence of prices on the allocation of consumer expenditure, but find little evidence to support the hypothesis that advertising has the power to effect marked changes in the inter-product pattern of consumer demand in the UK.
